javax.management.InstanceNotFoundException error on JBoss startup

I get the following error trying to start JBoss-3.0.7 under jdk1.6.0_04:

I've seached this site and the wider internet for resolutions to this and there appear to be none. Can anybody tell me if there is a solution yet or do I have to use a later version of JBoss and, if so, which one?

We need to use an early version of JBoss for regression testing purposes.

AS 3.0.7 will most probably need an older JDK to run, try jdk 1.4.x

Thanks for the reply.

I think that's what we'll have to do. Ideally, I would have liked a solution that enabled us to use Java 6 for the whole set of applications and tools (like JBoss) under test. But if that's not possible, or not possible without upgrading JBoss, then jdk 1.4.x it is.
